Gosh, I haven't thought about that for 24 years.
I think at the time, I thought Baby Spice or Posh were the best looking but I didn't really have a crush on any of them.

Honestly some of the best jazz I've heard has been in a video game.

Unfortunately with music lovers, video game music is overlooked because it isn't mainstream, nor is it commercially produced. If you haven't played game, you will never know about it. I think most people think it's just beeps and boops but it has come a long way.

However, I will say some of the best game music was the old stuff because some of it had really good melodies. They couldn't produce high quality orchestrated music with many layers of instruments so they focused on catchy melodies. My personal golden era of game music is super nintendo to playstation era. It's a bit unfortunate that a lot of the super nintendo stuff sounds a bit too synthetic but it's still wayyy better quality than nintendo and it's almost there. But by the time playstation came around, the music was pretty much sounding real. Unfortunately I found after that era, music, although it became better quality, and had more orchestration, just ended up sounding all the same and mediocre. There weren't many driving melodies that I could hum to.
